Happy New Year!
A few people have asked me to post online the poem that I read as part of my preach at our Christmas Celebration on 22nd December. So here it is….
God came from on
high, born down below
God came in order
that we might know
His love and his
peace and his care and his joy
God himself came
as a small baby boy
A shocking idea
to consider as true
But what if he
came for me and for you?
What if this baby
born years ago
Actually came in
order to show
That God was
real, that God is there
That God understands
the burdens we bear
That God is not
distant; removed from our pain
But that he
stepped in and in love bore the same
That he came to
forgive the mistakes of our past
To wipe the slate
clean; a brand new start
What response
would you make if this were all true?
If there were a
God who came just for you
What room would
you make in your life for the one?
Who came as a
baby, God’s only son
God came from on
high, born down below
God came in order
that we might know
God himself came
as a small baby boy
God came that we
may know true, deep, lasting joy
